Since the lines are parallel and you know the slope of
is -2, you know the slope of line
will also be -2. You can see on the coordinate grid that line
crosses the y-axis at -1. When you piece all of these facts together into slope-intercept form you get
= -2x - 1.

Answer:
-3x + y = 8.
3y = 9x.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of the lines we convert to slope-intercept form, which is
y = mx + c (m is the slope.)
The slope of y = 3x + 5 is therefore 3.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Finding the slope of the given lines:
-3x + y = 8
y = 3x + 8 - slope is 3 so this is parallel to y = 3x + 5.
3y = 9x
Divide through by 3:
y = 3x - so this is also parallel to 3x + 5.
y = -jx The slope is -j so it is not parallel.
16x + 2y = 12
2y = -16x + 12
y = -8x + 6 - Not parallel.
Answer:
35 bowls of mashed potatoes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To make a bowl of mashed potatoes, the chef uses one-fifth of a potato.
To use up one potato, he will make 5 bowls of mashed potatoes from it:
1 / (1/5) = 5 bowls of mashed potatoes.
With the 7 potatoes he has, he can make 7 x 5 bowls = 35 bowls of mashed potatoes.
